Using Fortifix® on the N614 road has reinforced the asphalt layer, preparing it to withstand heavy traffic loading. The grid structure prevents cracks from spreading to the surface, significantly extending the pavement’s service life.
Fortifix® also simplifies future recycling. The steel grid’s magnetic properties allow it to be easily separated from the asphalt during the recycling process, ensuring both materials can be reused.
The renovation of the N614 road in Herstappe underscores the effectiveness of Fortifix® as an asphalt reinforcement solution. By preventing reflective cracking, improving the tensile strength of asphalt pavements, and extending pavement life, Fortifix® proves to be a valuable investment for road construction. With Fortifix®, AWV ensured that the N614 road will remain durable and reliable for years, while also making future maintenance and recycling more efficient.
